WHY WE ARE DOING THE EARTHING IN A SYSTEM. SOME PEOPLE ARE
TELLING FOR PROTECTION. WHAT PROTECTION GIVE ME THE CORRECT
ANSWER.

Answer Posted / s.sakthivel

Basically three type of fault develop in the circuits
1, open circuits
2, short circuits
3,loose conection
4,body short

first three electrical fault are directly not distrub humen
and apparatus and last one (body shor) fault is directly
distrub humen and apparatus
so , body short fault time current is to discharge to
ground by the root of earth electrod, so we are addapted
every apparatus earthing system(vanthni@yahoo.com)

My question is whether bellow formula is correct to find bus size for 46kA for 0.5 second & what is RT in bellow formula. formula to calculate the size of busbar to withstand the thermal stresses due to currents with duration of 0.2 sec to 5 sec. Sp = RT( I x I x t) / K Where Sp – is the cross sectional area of bus bar in millimeters. I -    is the value of AC fault current. t -    is the operating time of disconnecting device in seconds. K –  is the factor depending on the material of the conductor, insulation and initial and final temperature. Value of ‘k’ for copper is 143.
